Higher or Lower Daily

Ten prices in a chain, the same chain for everyone today. You see one price and the next item; call whether the next one costs more or less. Nine calls, one score.

Loading today's chain…

The chain crosses items and countries, so a call is rarely as simple as "Norway is expensive". A Big Mac costs more in Uruguay than in Norway, and a pack of cigarettes in Australia, at over $24, is the dearest pack in the table. If you want to keep going after today's nine calls, the unlimited higher or lower runs until you miss.
